Anduril Industries is a defense technology company with a mission to transform U.S. and allied military capabilities with advanced technology. By bringing the expertise, technology, and business model of the 21st century’s most innovative companies to the defense industry, Anduril is changing how military systems are designed, built and sold. Anduril’s family of systems is powered by Lattice OS, an AI-powered operating system that turns thousands of data streams into a realtime, 3D command and control center. As the world enters an era of strategic competition, Anduril is committed to bringing cutting-edge autonomy, AI, computer vision, sensor fusion, and networking technology to the military in months, not years.
The Business Development (BD) team at Anduril identifies, shapes, captures, and grows new opportunities. The team seeks to deeply understand user problems, how current solutions fail to solve them, and how Anduril capabilities and products can address these gaps to deliver more effective mission outcomes.

We partner with Anduril’s Business Lines to ensure our products exceed customer expectations and mission demands, and continuously improve to adapt to ever-changing operating environments.
